Weather Sucks Again: Firefall Washout, ILA Next?
This Ozarks weather is maddening. I’m sure it’s doing a thorough job of thoroughly frustrating the organizers of both Firefall AND I Love America. (EDIT 11:03 PM)
In fact Firefall should be taking place right now, but since part of the field is flooded, all events have been cancelled until 4 PM. Event organizers will issue another update at 3 — presumably to call the whole thing off. I don’t want to be a pessimist, but look at this radar image as of 1:46 PM and you tell me if this is good firework weather.
Not only are Firefall folks praying for a little divine intervention, but I’m sure the folks of James River Assembly are praying as well for this liquid to vaporize and turn into Holy Ghost rain for I Love America. Even though their events are a few days off, I’m sure the Springfield Underground site that ILA is held on is turning into marshland.
I feel bad for folks heading up both events…hopefully they’ll be able to at least do the fireworks for Firefall tonight, and hopefully ILA won’t get washed out and it can dry up somewhat in time.
Thanks Lord, we’ve been praying and fasting for good weather and this isn’t what we meant. We really appreciate it, NOT REALLY.

Does that mean you actually have a night off work? I’ll have to take a break from pointing out Dr. Roger Ray’s apparent hypocrisy and see if I can hook up with you.

EXCUSE ME!!!!! I guess all the times you have read and heard the preaching of how that God parted the “Red Sea” (can’t get any wetter than that!) and the Israelites walked THROUGH IT ON DRY GROUND wasn’t enough to help you in stirring your faith in Him doing awesome miracles nowadays. Sorry kiddo but as much as I love you and have tried even lately to share with you how God has been blessing you so much, I’m going to have to chastise you because “I LOVE YOU!” God has blessed you with the ability to affect so many people through your blog, your job and your church, that I’m afraid you are missing what He is forming you to be as a young man of God. You should be using “every” possible situation to ASSIST Him in showing people that He is alive and worthy of everybodies worship and praise. Instead, I read negative reports with worldly slang and pointing fingers in them. Bud, I will continue to pray that you will see more of what God has in store for you and that you will persue His will and not yours. I love you Christopher, and I am very proud of your accomplishments and of who you are. Please continue to work (as we all have to do) at seeking first the kingdom of God and then seeing all the things that He will add unto you.
